Johnson is in the form of his life and his game is well-suited to a links course such as Royal Troon. The 32-year-old claimed his first major title last month when he won the US Open and followed that up by securing the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational just two weeks later.
A year ago, Spieth came into the event having won the Masters and the US Open but he is not in the same form and he will have to overcome his meltdown at Augusta when he threw away a five-shot lead while defending his Masters title.
An ankle injury while playing football forced McIlroy, the 2014 Open Championship winner, to miss last year’s event and a few other tournaments. Like Spieth, the Northern Irishman has not been at his best this year.

You can punt without the awesome foursome with BetVictor – Adam Scott heads the market at 14s – who are also promising full payouts on ties in the top five, 10 and 20 markets. That means no reduced dead-heat returns. And if you fancy two golfers to be fighting it out for top honours, BetVictor have special double chance odds.
